What are the main parts of the Skeletal System?

• The Skeletal systems main parts are matrix,
  joints, bone marrow, blood vessels, and porous
  bones. Porous bones are found in the feet and
  hands. They look like separated cells when
  magnified. Compact bones are found in your legs
  and arms such as the Femur and Tibia.When
  magnified they look packed together.

How does the Skeletal System work?

• The skeletal system works by carrying blood and
  nurturance through out the body. Even though the
  bones dont move to carry things they still flow
  through the bones. Joints help move the bones.
  They are found mostly at the end of a bone. If
  you get a fractured arm or leg blood clots will
  help repair the fracture.

How to keep the Skeletal System healthy?

• You can keep the Skeletal System healthy by
  drinking lots of milk and eating healthy foods.
  The more you dont fracture the bones the
  healthier they will be. So the next time you
  almost fall of a cliff or play chicken on the
  monkey bars think. Do I want my bones healthy?

Diseases of the Skeletal system

• When you fracture your bones if it is too serious
  it will cause to many blood clots and cause
  problems with your blood flow. If you happen to
  get a fracture you should get to a doctor or it
  will get worse. Arthritis is a disease caused by
  lack of tissue around your bones. When
  precipitation is near those with Arthritis can
  easily sense it.

This is not a human skeleton but it gives
a Example of a fractured bone.
